Food is superb, and as a military veteran I love the taste of the chicken alfredo! Yummy indeed. The pizza is great too.
I'm a bit in shock. I just scrolled my reviews and realized I've never posted about NYPD even though I've been coming here for 20+ years. When I first moved to Phoenix from the east coast in 1998, I wasn't prepared for the lack of decent pizza in this town. I tried so many places and just couldn't. Finally, someone who was also a transplant from the east said, "Have you tried NYPD yet?" That was that. My highest compliment for them is that as I've changed, they've changed too! They were one of the first pizza places in town to offer a high-quality vegan cheese offering, and to not up-charge for replacing the dairy cheese with it. I appreciate it so much! Lately, I've especially been appreciating their $10 1-topping 14 inch pizza specials! I picked one up on Friday and it was perfect. What I like about the pizza: soft yet firm NY style crust (and an excellent Sicilian style for those who want it), tomato sauce that isn't too sweet, and nice, thinly sliced onions. And of course the vegan cheese. It's good, old-school pizza - no muss no fuss. I also love the garlic knots (with no cheese) and the salads are simple but good. The Camelback location has barely changed over the years - which is fine by me! Parking can get busy during peak shopping times but there are short-term pick-up spots.
Our server Adrianna was super amazing and helpful with the menu. We had an order of boneless bbq wings and an order of traditional honey hot wings to start. Both were superb! We have been casually looking for really great wings and we have now found our spot. The flavor of both were great, but my favorite was the honey hot. Not greasy, just great flavor and cooked perfectly. We split a Brooklyn Family Pizza that is pepperoni, sausage, and basil. Good grief their dough/crust is soft and chewy and made a great pie. They also serve Pepsi products which is a plus in my book! Can't wait to go back!
Great service, staff is always nice and helpful. Pizza is very good, really like their pepperoni. Close to my work so I usually grab a slice once a week for lunch. Restaurant is always clean inside too. They do have an outdoor terrace to sit during the winter months. Highly recommend.
This is perfect for a nice takeout pizza night. Nothing fancy, but incredible nonetheless.
